thanks Grumpy,
I have checked this a couple of times, all appears to be ok...
are there different lengths of needles, and perhaps I have a shorter one, thus not being pushed up high enough into the seat by the float?
there is movement by both the float and needles, so neither are sticking. I cant seem to work this one out? The needle I have is black, and my model a Commando 2002. (plastic carby), would greatly appreciate any further advice.
regards
steve
